Hi, I was doing some testing of my Pentax 645 and the 75mm LS lens that I would use a few hours later to photograph a wedding. It would be an outdoor wedding and I needed the LS for the higher synch speed it would give me when using my 400T Pentax flash. Suddenly, the flash and the LS were not in synch when I tripped the shutter. Then I noticed that the leaf shutter wasn't even opening. What to do? Thank goodness the 645 has a PC connector that I was able to hook up a conventional Sunpak flash. Shooting at 1/60 was a bit limiting but I was able to do the formals with the 645 and the standard 75mm lens. Unfortunately, the breakdown of the LS 75mm is on top of the breakdown of my 150mm 645 lens. I didn't know the 150 was malfunctioning until I got overexposed prints back. So, is Colorado the best place to send the LS for repair? Is there another authorize Pentax repair facility that is better? Jim A. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
